Point and go

How it works

  1. Put red cones at one end and blue cones at the other. Tell each team which colour they score at.
  2. Players jog around in the middle. The coach shouts “point!” and everyone points at their try line.
  3. Then the coach shouts “go!” and everyone sprints to their try line. Swap colours after a few goes.

Coaching points

  • Look up and find your line before you move.
  • Point first, then run.
  • Make it a race, keep it fun.

Ready for the next level when: Every player points the right way straight away, even after colours swap.
